Abstract

A supported catalyst composition having improved flow properties is disclosed comprising an alkylalumoxane, a metallocene-alkyl an inorganic oxide support having an average particle size of from 0.1 to 50 μm and calcined at a temperature greater than 600° C., and optionally an antifoulant agent and. In one embodiment, the metallocene-alkyl is a Group 4, 5 or 6 metallocene-alkyl, and in another embodiment is a hafnocene-alkyl. Also disclosed is a method of polymerization using such a supported catalyst composition.
